I don’t know why, but I never made the connection of this pose to the term “reared-up” (meaning ready to go/launch) until recently.

It should probably be expected that any country with the means will interfere in other countries elections. What bothered me most in 2016 was not so much what Russia did, but that we didn’t seem to have much of a response to it. And yes can we please support democracy and not authoritarians. I feel like the whole cold war was about capitalism vs communism when it should have been about democracy vs authoritarianism.
I remember a documentary about a famous northwest passage expedition that was never seen again. One of the inuit people they talked to during an investigation claimed they found a boat, and in the captain’s quarters they found a body in the bed with a big smile on its face. That would be absolutely terrifying, but apparently that’s what naturally happens to corpses when their lips and gums receed.
This is what the passive income 1% crowd tell the rest of us.
I agree, but my understanding of it is that developing and announcing a long term plan for a company like that would cause the stock price to dip in the short term. Apparently that would be something shareholders could sue over, so even if some CEO wanted to do the right thing, they couldn’t. It comes down to the greed of people who don’t know and don’t care about the companies they’re invested in and their impacts on the world. They just want that money to come in every month.
I never thought about it that way. Basically any algorithm that sorts posts could be argued to be censorship. But you can’t sort based on straight vote either because of fake accounts and bots. I guess we are just doomed to be manipulated.
That’s a much taller order than you make it sound. It’d probably be easier to figure out fusion.
Fusion is the first step to a post scarcity world. All the new technology, products, agriculture methods, ect. that would be made possible with abundant, clean energy would completely transform the world. I doubt solar and wind could ever provide enough to make those advances.
Just think about the amount of fuel one plane uses, then go look at flightradar24.com
So all war is genocide by that definition.
Yeah… I’m not sure I understand that comment without an example. Are you saying your field is something that takes a lifetime to master and you have to spend every waking hour working on it?
And yes the classes that I learned the most in were the ones where we would read the textbook together and do exercises during class. The worst were the ones that would just assign the chapter for you to read at home without them there as a resource if you had any questions.
I did my homework… just when it came to lazy teachers that expected you to teach yourself by assigning chapters to read from textbooks that aren’t known to be easy reads, the quality was usually lacking. It would be better if I could read the textbook with someone who knows the subject matter… ah yes I’ve got it, a TEACHER.
And you sound like you’re making excuses for shitty teachers.
The best teachers I ever had were the ones who actually taught during class and rarely had to assign homework.
If teachers don’t explains things, then what exactly are they for?
University could be a whole lot cheaper if they gave out diplomas for just reading the text books.
No one is trying to arrest him because he is selective about what he releases. They want to arrest him because he aided in illegally accessing classified info. That is the behavior of a spy, not a jornalist. The person he aided was already found guilty and did their time.
Are you well known as a corrupt state?
You have to ask? Who has Assange never released any information on even though they are known for corruption…
I mean it is an accurate description of it, so that might be a connection… but if you know the actual history of the term then please share
